Conviviale, Montepulciano d`Abruzzo
Abruzzo | Italy
Cherry and ripe plum aromas mingle with warm earthy spice, leading to a densely packed palate of morello cherry, cassis, and bramble.
About the Producer
Produced from selected parcels of Montepulciano grapes, from low yielding 30 to 50 year old vines in the Chieti province of Abruzzo. Fermentation took place in small batches between 28 and 30C using natural yeasts. The skins were left in contact with the fermenting wine for 10 days. After malolactic fermentation the wine was transferred to Adria’s cellars and matured in a combination of large Slavonian oak casks and French oak barriques for 6-8 months.
Food Pairing
Perfect with gragnano pasta and Bolognese sauce.

Fun Fact
While the origin of the town name is still debated, the consensus is that ‘ pulciano ’ derives from an Etruscan word meaning ruler. ‘ Monte ’ in Italian is mountain, so Montepulciano could mean ‘mountain of the ruler.’
